I think there may be one point missing from your dissertation, kamikaze pilots tended to avoid civilian targets where as suicide bombers seem to aim primarily for civilians. Yes it's nuts to kill yourself purposely in any situation, but I think that one can see more honor in "throwing yourself on the grenade" during war so to speak in the way the kamikaze did for their country. Suicide bombers just want to kill people, it's about taking out as many of "them"(Israelis, Americans, those who aren't fundamentalists) as they can. Granted, you can say that the bombers are at war but it's the fact that they repeatedly go for CHILDREN that makes them lack any and all honor...
